The fear of you
Read the full text in our reader
καὶ ὁ τρόμος ὑμῶν καὶ ὁ φόβος ἔσται ἐπὶ πᾶσιν τοῖς θηρίοις τῆς γῆς καὶ ἐπὶ πάντα τὰ ὄρνεα τοῦ οὐρανοῦ καὶ ἐπὶ πάντα τὰ κινούμενα ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς καὶ πάντας τοὺς ἰχθύας τῆς θαλάσσης· ὑπὸ χεῖρας ὑμῖν δέδωκα.
A new fact of the post-flood world: animals will now fear humankind. τρόμος καὶ φόβος ("trembling and fear") is a stock LXX pairing for terror; "into your hands are they given" (ὑπὸ χεῖρας ὑμῖν δέδωκα) is Hebrew idiom for total dominion/subjection, the same idiom Scripture later uses of enemies delivered into someone's power.
